Walkin down...

so theres been alot of drama lately and i dont know if im even inviting my dad...i hate calling him that to my wedding anymore let alone i DONT want him walking me down anymore if i do decide to invite him heres my question....my mother is my maitron of honor and she has been a single mother up until about 2 yrs ago so i wanted her to walk me down the aisle but to keep peace made her moh and was going to have my dad but since thats changed i want my mom to walk me down but is that weird since shes MOH? i would have her and possibly stepfather as well wat do you girls think?

It's your wedding day - you should be walked down the aisle by the person who means the most to you, not by the person who 'traditionally' does it. If you don't have a close relationship with your dad, there's no reason he has to be the one to do it. And there's nothing wrong with a woman walking you down the aisle - in Jewish weddings, it's actually customary for both parents to escort the bride. So have your mom and your stepfather, just your mom, or no one at all - you'd still make a beautiful entrance if you walked down the aisle alone. Either way, it's YOUR CHOICE - don't feel pressured to ask anyone to do it only because you think it's traditional to.

Sorry you're having all this drama - hope you can relax and have fun with the rest of your planning.

Whatever you want is fine. It is your special day. You plan it however you want. There is no right or wrong on how to do a wedding. It is whatever that person wants to do. Good Luck.

that is a tough situation, but it is YOUR wedding, so do what you feel comfortable with. if yur mom is the one who has had the most impact in your life, you should have her walk u down the aisle...i wouldnt worry about what other people think. you can also do a dance with your mom at the reception, i have seen this done before and it is really nice.

my parents are divorved and my mom basically raised me when i was a kid...and my dad started putting forth effort when i was in hs and such.

because he's changed...im having my dad walk me down (and thought my mom would flip...she really HATES him)...but everything has been okay. he is walking me down...picking up my mom at her pew and they are both 'giving me away'

i say do whatever you want to do and have whoever you want walk you down the aisle. if your mom deserves the honor...its okay that she is moh...no one will care.

i dont think it's weird.

my mama dukes is walking me down the isle ...
